Gorgeous Oceanfront Retreat on Penobscot Bay
Perched on a hill a few minutes walk from the historic costal village of Bayside, the main house offers 300 feet of private shore frontage. From nearly every room of the house views of the majestic Penobscot Bay stretch out before you.
The main house, an arts and crafts turn of the century home, has been left untouched, only restored and updated by the same family. On the second floor it features 5 double bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a large family media room (with a queen sized sofa bed) and a open landing that doubles as a play area under vaulted beamed ceilings. The master bedroom features a fireplace and a generous bathroom - with a shower and separate tub overlooking the sea. Each bedroom also comes with high quality linens and 2 renovated shared bathrooms. The media room comes equipped with apple tv, Direct TV, Netflix, and VHS/DVD with an array of movies to keep everyone entertained.
On the ground floor there is an open plan kitchen with a large double oven/stove, communal table, dishwasher and an incredible modified ice box that is original to the house and functions now as a very large fridge . There are plates and cutlery along with every form of cooking utensil. Adjoining the kitchen is a separate bar/wash area with microwave. The adjacent dinning room is astounding with a large arts and crafts table overlooking the porch and sea with a working fireplace. The living room comes off this, with comfortable leather club chairs and sofas around another large fireplace. There is also a home office with printer and desk. There is high speed internet throughout the house. Each of all these rooms leads to a wrap around covered porch that beautifully frames the ocean view complete with white wicker furniture along with a teak picnic table perfect for outdoor dinning. In the basement there is a laundry room with washer and dryer. There is also an abundant supply of fireplace logs in the basement, as well as a second, modern fridge.
Surrounding the house are lush gardens and lawns complete with a fire pit. The front lawn comes with a full turning circle and multiple parking spaces. The front gate is made by a local artist in the Adirondack camp style. We've left a ping pong table on the porch for your enjoyment.
To the left of the house is a separate guest carriage house with a self contained apartment above it. There are 2 double bedrooms, living room, a self contained kitchen and bathroom complete with a shower/bathtub. This is perfect for a small family or friends wishing to join in on a holiday but also allowing them to have their own privacy. There is an additional fee of $800 per week of the use of the 2-bedroom Carriage House.
There is a private walkway and stairs down to the beach from the bottom of the garden where you can enjoy the lovely Penobscot Bay. Sit on the large deck and spot porpoise and seals, beach comb, kayak, or swim, as the bay is normally wonderfully calm.
